Directions

Step 1.

Set aside oil for cooking and mix all other ingredients including egg white OR oil, if using, in a bowl. Cover bowl and refrigerate overnight so that the meat can absorb the flavor of the spices - optional.

Step 2.

Shape the mixture into small patties of equal size. Meat will be sticky, you can grease you hands to make it easier to shape patties.

Step 3.

Heat skillet with expeller pressed oil suited for high heat, like Safflower or Grapeseed oil and cook sausage patties until browned, about 5 minutes. Turn patties over and brown on the other side.

Step 4.

Make sure sausage patties are cooked through but do not overcook or they will be dry since lean ground turkey does not contain all of the fat that traditional pork sausage does.

Step 5.

Serve with scrambled eggs and a big glass of unsweetened coconut or almond milk.

Step 6.

HEALTHY HINTS & QUICK TIPS: You can make the sausage and keep the meat or the patties in the refrigerator up to 5 days. You can also cook all the patties and freeze the leftovers then reheat them for a quick breakfast.
